It's the classic indie lads tale of wanting to break out from the hum drum of normal, everyday life, that yearning for something more.
Dundee band Make Sparks know this tale only too well, writing sick notes for school to get out of classes - they'd then sneak back home to play all day long. It's a romantic tale, the passion for music offering that window out into a world of promise and adventure.
And it's evident in their new single Your Heart's On Fire too, all angular, spiky Kids In Glass Houses style guitar hooks and impassioned vocals akin to fellow Scot-rockers Biffy Clyro.
Here Make Sparks build their own foundations - energetic, powerful music to break out of towns with. As one particular line recalls 'Forever is over... forever is such a long time' - the eagerness to escape the stagnation of their old lives is plain.
Their debut album is lined up for a 2012 release and an autumn tour accompanies the single release.
Your Heart's On Fire is released on the 5th September.
